    Chapter 84


    Valerie’s expression twisted in disbelief. “Wait, what’s going on here!”


    Dn’s reputation was notorious, and people usually avoid going on business trips with him. Plus,


    the one with the lowest performance rating wha was set to be Dn’s travel buddy was a guy, so


    no issues there


    How on earth did Katherine end up joining him?


    Valerie was only absent this weekend, and something like this happened.


    “Valerie, it’s on me,” the new girl, still shaken from Isabel’s attack, said, “I closed three car dealsst


    month, but somehow my report got all messed up. Mr. Hart chewed me out, saying it could’ve cost


    thepany over 20 thousand dors.


    Valerie muttered. “It’s the finance department’s job to check the report. Dn can’t boss you


    around.”


    The new girl felt upset. “Wish you were there with me yesterday, Valerie. I didn’t have the guts to


    stand up to Mr. Hart, but I really don’t wanna go on a trip with him. Heard he’s creepy with girls on


    trips… Katherine said she took my ce to protect me. She says she knows kickboxing, and Mr.


    Har wouldn’t dare touch her”


    Valerie frowned at the news. Katherine was always hold, but this was next–level. Even if she knew


    how to throw a punch, what if things escted? Dn was not exactly known for his boundaries. If


    something did happen, it could get really messy.


    Valerie hurriedly dialed Katherine’s number, relieved when she finally picked up


    The background had some noise going on


    “Katherine, where are you? Did Dn do anything to you? Valerie’s voice was tense with concem.


    “Valerie!” Katherine recognized her voice andughed. “Rx, everything’s fine. Dn wouldn’t


    dare mess with me, or I’ll make sure he learns some


    manners


    Katherine’s voice came through, and Valerie finally let out a sigh of relief. “Katherine, why’s it so


    loud over there?”


    Katherine nced around and exined, “Oh, a big–shot coal boss ordered a bunch of cars thus


    time. He’s throwing a group wedding for three couples of his employees, and they’re short on help.


    They asked me to step in as a temporary bridesmaid. It’s pretty lively here. I’ll hang around. until the


    banquet kicks off, then maybe grab a bite to eat.”“


    Valerie felt better knowing there was a crowd around


    With so many people, even if Dn had any funny ideas, he wouldn’t dare act on them.

    Just as Valerie was about to say more, a suddenmotion erupted outside the lobby, sounding


    like trouble.


    Katherine listened in confusion. “Valerie, what’s going on over there?”


    Not wanting to worry her, Valerie downyed it. “Oh, just my coworkers messing around”


    But the noise sounded serious, Katherine hesitated, debating whether to call Valerie backter,


    when suddenly, Dn, who had been mingling with the coal boss, appeared behind her.


    “Why are you calling Valerie?” he asked.


    Katherine jumped at his sudden voice, and seeing it was Dn, she frowned and stayed quiet, not


    wanting to talk.


    She didn’t want to chat, but he kept on pushing..


    “Hey, hold up!” Dn clinked his ss, stopping Katherine in her tracks. “Did Valerie trash talk me


    again? That girl’s got a mouth on her, don’t mind


    Katherine grinned back at Dn, not buying it. “You don’t need anyone to badmouth you. We all


    know who you are.”


    g with anger as he said, “You’ve got some sharp words for someone so young. Careful you don’t


    end up alone!”


    Dn’s face was burning


    “Dn, I’m just here to work. If you’re not happy, just kick me out. But don’t think I’m interested in


    you. Besides, I’ve got a sweet boyfriend. Even if I don’t end up getting married, that’s my problem,


    not yours!”


    With that, Katherine strutted off as the wedding ceremony kicked off, needing her as a bridesmaid.


    She took to the stage, throwing a bit of shade Dn’s way. “Must be bad luck having you here on


    such a happy asion!”


    “Your” Dn was unable toe up with aeback as he watched Katherine walking away in a


    rage.

    His eyes wandered to Katherine’s slim waist, her sharp words contrasting with her stunning figure.


    Thoughts of Valerie shed through Dn’s mind, followed by Katherine’s harsh remarks, His brow


    furrowed, a sinister grin spreading across
